NEWS RELEASE
Welsh Announces Campaign for Lehigh County Commissioner
Mike's "Contract with County Taxpayers" includes:
BALANCE the county budget without increasing property taxes or raiding county reserves. Government must live within its means and
only spend what it takes in.
CAP wage increases for public employees. They must never grow at a faster rate than county revenues or Social Security cost of
living increases.
OPPOSE any effort to charge a county sales tax. We should not be creating new taxes, we should be cutting the ones we have.
SUPPORT placing limits on how much any one person can contribute to an individual campaign. Money is corrupting the election process
and it must stop.
REJECT the pay raise Commissioners voted themselves last year. Those who took it should give it back. Those in line to get it should
refuse it.
